May I inform you that the LOA applications of SPPI had been signed and ready for pick-up. vs May I inform you that the LOA applications of SPPI has been signed and ready for pick-up.

The correct phrase is: 'May I inform you that the LOA applications of SPPI have been signed and are ready for pick-up.' The subject 'LOA applications' is plural, so it should be followed by 'have been' instead of 'has been.' Additionally, 'are ready' is more appropriate than 'is ready' since the applications are plural.

This phrase is incorrect. 'Had been' is past perfect tense, which is not suitable in this context. 'Have been' is the correct form for present perfect tense.

"May I inform you that the LOA applications of SPPI had been signed and ready for pick-up."

Incorrect usage. The correct form should be 'have been signed' instead of 'had been signed.'

This phrase is incorrect. 'Has been' is singular, but 'LOA applications' is plural. Therefore, 'have been' should be used instead.

"May I inform you that the LOA applications of SPPI has been signed and ready for pick-up."

Incorrect usage. The correct form should be 'have been signed' instead of 'has been signed.'
